A Surprise for Peter Buying a Jungle Cock Cape from UK

​I attempted to order a  Jungle cock cape  from www.troutcatchers.com in England. I then received the following from troutcatchers:

Once again thank you for your order. Just to let you know when purchasing Jungle Cock outside the EU it is legally necessary to obtain a CITES certificate from DEFRA, which we can obtain on your behalf, fees for this service are £79.97

Needless to say I have cancelled the order and will look to local resources as well as rethink my need for Jungle Cock eyes which I was hoping to use to dress Jindy Horrors which have been a successful fly for me when spotting for the large browns which patrol Lake Jindabyne shorelines after spawning runs have finished.

I have sent this just for the information of members who were wanting or thinking of ordering Jungle Cock Capes from overseas.
